Wolfe Brothers

Although the WOLFE BROTHERS first formed during the mid 1970s, the group re-established their unique old time sound in the early 1990s. Featuring three vocalists, the band's repertoire ranges from rarely heard traditional songs and tunes to their own original material. Founding members Jerry Correll (fiddle) and Dale Morris (banjo, guitar) are joined by Casey Hash (guitar, accordion) and Donna Correll (bass). The Wolfe Brothers have played at many venues including Merlefest, the Carter Fold Festival, Floydfest, the Barter Theater, and the Delaware Valley Bluegrass Festival. Bluegrass Unlimited featured an article about the group in their June '04 issue, and they have appeared on the acclaimed PBS television series, Song of the Mountains. They all reside in the Grayson County, Virginia, community of Elk Creek. The band has recorded five projects.

Old Virginia Hills

...the opening song, "Music In The Old Virginia Hills" is so good. It's absolutely catchy and old time country sounding. . . the song could be the theme for the tourism campaign called the Crooked Road. The instruments sound so clear and distinct...the harmonies are lovely . . . several new original songs. The Wolfe Bros. have a remarkedly fine sound.Old Time Herald
